Exactly what I expected. Having western developers take over the series was a huge mistake and as long as it's done this way we will never have the Silent Hill that we know and love...
What the western developers don't get is that what made silent hill 2 great was it had a deeper meaning than what was there.
Also the guy who created the music studied how music and sound affects your moods.
I think the whole point to silent hill kinda went over these okes heads.
